This is a Macallan single malt of 18 years, distilled in 1972 and bottled by the distillery in 1990, in a 75cl bottle at 43% ABV. It was matured fully in sherry oak casks from Jerez in Spain.
The 18 Year Old was first launched in 1984, and early releases like this one came in a white box with a purple sash, showing Sara Midda's watercolours of Easter Elchies house.
The nose brings old walnuts, wax polish, cooked apricots and orange marmalade, with a little leather and tobacco. The palate is fruity, with apricot juice, tinned pineapple, mint drops and smoked tea. The finish is medium-long, on caramelised fruit.
